Just because you can cherry pick a dozen articles from the last TEN YEARS about NATO and Ukraine doesn’t make you right.
I don’t even need an article to refute all of that - Russia attacked a neighbor unprovoked, NATO has attacked NOBODY ever.
That is a crazy take. Europe could spend some money and help Ukraine win this without losing any of their own soldiers’ lives.
He’s wrong of course, Europe’s economy is many times stronger than Russia’s. The real question is if they can find the collective will to defend themselves.
Yeah no one saw a need for this EIGHT YEARS AGO?!
Finally a feel-good story makes the news
Oh damn didn’t know that. Definitely changes the calculus
Love this game. My buddy and I are waiting for the next full release to start a new campaign. Looks like they’ve added a lot since we played last.
Really looking forward to NPCs though, hope they don’t wait too many decades to complete that.
I can’t remember what podcast I was listening to, maybe a Dan Carlin series, but it was talking about how in this post industrialization + propaganda era the breaking point for nations is far FAR more extreme than it was in the before times.
IMO it’s even worse than that. At least from what I gather from the AI/Singularity communities I follow. For them, AGI is the end goal - a creative thinking AI capable of deduction far greater than humanity. The company that owns that suddenly has the capability to solve all manner of problems that are slowing down technological advancement. Obviously owning that would be worth trillions.
However it’s really hard to see through the smoke that the Altmans etc. are putting up - how much of it is actual genuine prediction and how much is fairy tales they’re telling to get more investment?
And I’d have a hard time believing it isn’t mostly the latter because while LLMs have made some pretty impressive advancements, they still can’t have specialized discussions about pretty much anything without hallucinating answers. I have a test I use for each new generation of LLMs where I interview them about a book I’m relatively familiar with and even with the newest ChatGPT model, it still makes up a ton of shit, even often contradicting its own answers in that thread, all the while absolutely confident that it’s familiar with the source material.
Honestly, I’ll believe they’re capable of advancing AI when we get an AI that can say ‘I actually am not sure about that, let me do a search…’ or something like that.
Why does that work?
Yeah you say that until you get a tusk in the crotch
If he loses he’ll be weaker than he’s been in a long time. I don’t see how he staves off the legal and political challenges he’ll be quickly inundated with. I think this election really means his survival or ruin.
That’s the one thing I finally learned with the DLC that I should have learned long before this - leaving and coming back later instead of fighting and dying to a tough boss 30 times in a row
Huh, is this maybe the newer Tomb Raider?
I’d do this too but every screenshot I posted would just be Elden Ring.
So would this potentially reset the battlefield and negate the disruptive changes drones had brought to it? Or does it just mean more drones and stronger drones?
That is a clever point but I think it also overly simplifies the nature of reality to such a point that it’s not likely to change any minds.
Couldn’t it also be argued that our lack of awareness of the big stuff also leaves open the possibility of free will?
I guess I’m OOTL - what happened with Valheim?
